Pulaski commission debates rental rules, records motion to increase camping fee from $20 to $25
Summary
The commission discussed rental agreements for park property and recorded motions to ensure park contracts are enforced and to increase the camping fee from $20 to $25. The minutes record the motions but do not include vote tallies.
At its Jan. 14 meeting the Pulaski Parks & Recreation Commission opened discussion on rental agreements and rental fees for large events and campgrounds. Commissioners considered restricting use of the polka grounds and the KC building to registered renters and campers.
Ernie Allen moved a measure—seconded by Shannon Beyersdorf—directing the village to ensure park contracts are fully utilized, including requiring users to rent space for days when the facilities are otherwise unavailable and requiring campers to register with the Village of Pulaski. The minutes record the motion; a roll-call tally was not included.
Minutes also record a motion by Ernie Allen, seconded by Kelsey Hames, to increase the camping fee from $20 to $25. Meeting text records the motion but does not supply a member-by-member vote tally or an explicit “MOTION CARRIED” line attached to that motion; the minutes show the floor was later closed and the meeting adjourned.
Speakers during the discussion included Adam Winkler and Rich Roth, who suggested a $20 per‑camper approach for incoming groups and campers; the commission’s motion on the fee updates that figure in the minutes.
Next steps recorded in the minutes are to bring proposed rental terms and fees to the Committee of the Whole (C.O.W.) meeting on Jan. 19, 2026 for further consideration.
